Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of cavern excavation, and in particular relates to a mechanical excavation method for a surrounding rock cavern. Background Art

[0002] In the excavation process of surrounding rock caverns, the traditional excavation method is to use drilling and blasting. Although this excavation method uses a short advance, due to the relatively broken surrounding rock of the cavern, the blasting method will cause vibration to the surrounding rock of the entire face. After the blasting is completed, it will cause serious over-excavation of the cavern side arch, and the support process time is relatively long, which seriously affects the progress, quality and safety of the cavern excavation. Summary of the invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a mechanical excavation method for a surrounding rock cavern, which solves the serious problem of over-excavation of the cavern side and top arch caused by traditional excavation.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by the present invention is a mechanical excavation method for surrounding rock caverns, comprising the following steps: S1. Support the cavern roof arch, excavate the cavern face and lay out the contour line; S2. Drilling a number of contour holes along the contour line using a drilling device; S3. Use hole-opening equipment to dig a center hole at a position slightly below the center of the tunnel face, and use excavation equipment to excavate layer by layer along the upper part and both sides of the center hole; S4. Excavate the upper part and both sides of the center hole to the designed depth of 0.5 m, use the hole-opening equipment to open two rows of excavation holes in the lower part of the center hole, and then use the excavation equipment to excavate the cavern face in the lower part of the center hole from top to bottom to the designed depth of 0.5 m; S5. After the excavation is completed, measurements are taken, the under-excavated positions are marked, and the under-excavated positions are chiseled out using hole-opening equipment to complete the excavation at the designed depth of 0.5 m; S6. Repeat S1 to S5 to complete the excavation of the surrounding rock cavern.

[0005] The present invention is also characterized in that: The drilling equipment in S2 is a single-arm drilling rig.

[0006] The depth of several contour holes in S2 is 0.7m-0.8m, and the spacing between several contour holes is 0.8m-1.0m.

[0007] The drilling equipment in S3 is a hydraulic hammer.

[0008] The depth of the center hole in S3 is 0.5m-0.6m, and the diameter of the center hole is 1.5m-2.0m.

[0009] The excavation equipment in S3 is a hydraulic backhoe.

[0010] The thickness of layer-by-layer excavation in S3 is 0.5m-0.6m.

[0011] In S4, the depth of the two rows of excavation holes is 0.5m-0.6m, the diameter of the two rows of excavation holes is 0.7m-0.8m, the spacing between the two rows of excavation holes is 1.8m-2.0m, and the spacing between the two rows of excavation holes is 2.5m-3.0m.

[0012] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: The mechanical excavation method for surrounding rock caverns provided by the present invention first uses a single-arm drill to drill along the contour of the face, and then uses a hydraulic backhoe and a hydraulic hammer to excavate the cavern, which effectively solves the problem of over-excavation caused by blasting, thereby extending the time of the support process and ensuring the safety, quality and progress of the surrounding rock cavern excavation construction.
